You Got the Lead. Now Close It.

You may not need more leads. What would change if you could close more of the ones you already have?

Mando Sallavanti III, CFP®, CEPA®, went from struggling new advisor to a seven-figure practice with a very different playbook: relationships, social media, and trust instead of traditional prospecting. Today he coaches younger advisors on building their businesses the same way.

Join us on September 24 at 1:00 PM PT / 4:00 PM ET as Marla Sofer and Mando Sallavanti discuss how advisors building a book today can turn the attention they are already earning into clients. We'll dig into where leads fall out, why "schedule a meeting" is such a big leap, how to establish credibility without a 20-year reputation, and what separates advisors who convert from advisors who constantly need more leads.

Then we'll put it to the test. Marla will demo Knomee with a real prospect profile and hand it to Mando: what does he see, what would he say in the first five minutes, and what should the advisor do next?

We'll get practical:

  • How do you turn attention into actual prospects?

  • What should happen between "I'm interested" and "book a meeting"?

  • How can a younger advisor build trust without 20 years of experience?

  • How do you walk into the first conversation already knowing what matters?

No long presentation. No theory. A repeatable system you can use immediately: Attention → Insight → Conversation → Client.

45 minutes, including live Q&A.
